Hello,
Can anyone please explain to me about this accession number and the CMW number in Genbank. How they related to each other ? I read some journal, some stating the Genbank accession number but not the CMW number or vice versa. If I have the CMW number and I search in Genbank it cannot be find. Why is that happen ? or for example I have the CMW14799, how do I find the Genbank acession number ?
CMW is the institution code (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/biocollections?term=CMW%5BUnique%20institution%20code%5D) that isolated the strain and 14799 is the internal strain number. Depending on the type of sequencing data the authors may decide to store it in different repositories. For example, Genbank does not have an entry for that strain (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/bioproject/?term=txid5158[Organism:exp]). I advise using the NCBI taxonomy browser to find related records for a specific strain (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/Taxonomy/Browser/wwwtax.cgi?lvl=0&id=5158).
